Exploding Proxy Objects

Exploding Proxy Objects

Ribbon: Draw – Explode/erase > Explode proxy
Menu: Modify – Advanced tools > Exploding proxies
Command line: XPROXY
The command is intended for breaking proxy objects having graphical representation into ordinary objects. Pre-selection of objects is acceptable. If there are no selected objects, the command makes a query:

Select objects or [?/Drawing]:

In response to the query it is possible to select objects or specify an option. The Drawing option is intended to select all proxy objects with graphics in a drawing, including objects on other drawing tabs, which cannot be selected in another way. Upon specifying this option, the system will perform the explode and report on the results, for example:

Proxies exploded: 348
New objects created: 5629

Option ? makes a query to change the method for selecting objects, similar to SELECT command query.
If objects that are not proxy objects get in the set of objects selected for XPROXY command, they will be ignored.
